Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 516: The Position of the Patriarch

"The elder is wrong." As soon as Yun Waitian finished speaking, an elder of the Yun family said: "In terms of prestige, strength, and contribution to our Yun family over the years, the next head of the family must be the elder."

"That's right." Another elder nodded immediately: "In terms of rank, the elder ranks first in the elders' council, and in terms of strength, he is also second to none. In the years when the head of the family was disabled, the elder has been fully responsible for the major events of the family. If we want to choose the most suitable and most popular head of the family, only the elder can do it."

"I think so too."

Several elders spoke in succession, all of them strongly recommended the elder Yun Waitian to succeed the head of the family. Gradually, more and more people spoke for Yun Waitian, and those elders who did not speak eventually accounted for only a minority, and they could only sigh secretly. Then, those middle-level members of the Yun family and young disciples also began to shout the name of the elder.

A hundred years ago, Yun Canghai never returned, and Yun Qinghong succeeded as the head of the Yun family. At that time, in terms of prestige and family influence, ten Yun Waitians could not compare to Yun Qinghong. Yun Qinghong was a man of great influence in the Yun family, and the whole family followed him as the leader, and no one disobeyed him. Although the eleven strongest cornerstones of the Yun family at that time collapsed overnight, the strength plummeted, and they were also burdened with guilt, but the Yun family believed that with Yun Qinghong's leadership, the Yun family would surely rise again. Outside the Yun family, no one really dared to underestimate the Yun family whose strength had greatly declined... because at that time, the Yun family had a brilliant Yun Qinghong.

But twenty-two years ago, Yun Qinghong was useless.

In a world where strength is respected, a weak person whose strength is as low as dust and can never become stronger again, even with the halo of "head of the family", can no longer be truly respected and respected. During the twenty-two years, the reputation he had accumulated was disappearing rapidly. People's admiration, respect, awe, worship, and fear of him gradually turned into sighs, indifference, and even ridicule and gloating as he became disabled. The seniors, peers, and juniors of the Yun family who had placed great hopes on him were all disappointed and sighed endlessly. As the top Xuan cultivation family in the Illusionary Demon Realm, who in the Yun family would not mind being led by a complete useless person?

Even those who had secretly sworn to be loyal to Yun Qinghong for life, some of them withdrew sadly, and the other part who was still willing to follow him to death was also actively expelled by Yun Qinghong... Because at that time, he knew his physical condition, and if he stayed with him, he would have no future. How could he be willing to delay these people who treated him sincerely?

In the end, he still had the identity of "family head", but only his wife and son were left by his side.

More than 20 years ago, who would have thought that Yun Qinghong, who had almost the most dazzling halo in the entire Illusionary Demon Realm, was now almost ignored by anyone.

After being disabled for 22 years, the patriarch who once led the Yun family has no one in his family who speaks for him and supports him to continue to be the patriarch.

However, facing this reality, Yun Qinghong does not blame anyone. After all, he is a disabled person. Whether it is the elders' council or the grand elders, their original intention is for the future of the Yun family. After all, the Yun family, which has a disabled person as the patriarch, is not only ridiculed, but also has no future. Compared with the future of the Yun family, the bloodline of the patriarch does not seem so important.

The voices supporting the Great Elder were getting louder and louder. Yun Waitian suppressed his excitement and said modestly: "I am flattered by your kindness, but I am incompetent and I dare not take on the position of the head of this family... But the Seventh Elder is outstanding and is an excellent candidate for the new head of the family."

The "Seventh Elder" mentioned by Yun Waitian waved his hand quickly: "Great Elder, you are embarrassing me. Excuse me, looking at the whole Yun family, with the Great Elder here, it is difficult for anyone else to succeed the head of the family to convince the public."

"Yes! Support the Great Elder to succeed the head of the family!"

"Great Elder, don't refuse. The successor of the Yun family must be you."

The voice of the Yun family Once again, Yun Waitian clenched his fists, his heart was already surging with excitement...Twenty-two years ago, after Yun Qinghong became disabled, he had the idea of ​​becoming the head of the family. In the past twenty-two years, he has been working hard for this goal, accumulating more and more reputation in the Yun family...If he becomes the head of the family, the lineage of the Yun family's head that has lasted for ten thousand years will be rewritten. A hundred years later, his son Yun Xinyue will become the next head of the family, and then his grandson, his descendants...

Facing Yun Qinghong who has become a disabled person, and his son who can't use the power of Xuan Gang, he knows that this day is not far away...And today, it has finally arrived.

Amid the increasingly loud calls from the Yun family's children, a discordant sneer sounded: "Since Elder Yun knows that he is not worthy of the position of the head of the family, why do you people have to make a fuss and make things difficult for Elder Yun? If Elder Yun can't stand it and agrees to it again, wouldn't others say that your elder of the Yun family has not only coveted the position of the head of the family for a long time, but also hypocritically shirked it? This reputation of being insidious, cunning and hypocritical is quite unpleasant... Elder Yun, don't you think so?"

Mu Yubai's words were quite vicious. The Yun family supported Yun Waitian to succeed as the head of the family. Yun Waitian himself just shirked a little, but Mu Yubai took advantage of the opportunity and used his words to abruptly put him in the big hat of being despicable, insidious and hypocritical if he succeeded as the head of the family. Yun Waitian's mouth twitched violently. Just as he was about to say something, another arrogant voice sounded on the right:

"I agree with what Master Mu said." The speaker was He Lianpeng. He narrowed his triangular eyes and said slowly: "I heard that after Yun Qinghong was deposed, the eldest elder of the Yun family took over the Yun family. He has control over everything above and below, no matter how big or small. Although he is only a great elder, he is more important than the head of the family... Gee, I have heard many people say that the great elder of the Yun family must be more than ten years ago. After so many years of coveting the position of the head of the Yun family, there have been more and more rumors like this. If Elder Yun really suddenly becomes the head of the Yun family, these rumors will be confirmed. When the time comes, hehe, this The name of the head of the family is very loud in the Yun family, and it might stink when you go outside. "

He Lianpeng, who had spoken for Yun Waitian before and almost got into a fight with Mu Yubai because of this, actually helped Mu Yubai this time and said more to Yun Waitian than Mu Yubai said. Sharp and mean. Yun Waitian's expression suddenly changed, and the core elders of the Yun family also looked at each other. Mu Yubai frowned and glanced sideways at He Lianpeng... He would not be so naive as to think that He Lianpeng would be kind enough to comply with his words.

Could it be that this guy came here specifically to cause trouble today?

Mu Yubai's words made Yun Waitian feel like he had swallowed a fly alive, and what He Lianpeng said was nothing more than a mouthful of shit that made him feel so uncomfortable and angry that his spleen and lungs almost exploded. He thought that if he wanted to become the head of the family, Mu Yubai would be a big obstacle. Unexpectedly, besides Mu Yubai, there was also He Lianpeng who would disrupt the situation! He twitched the corners of his mouth for a while, trying hard to make his expression not so ugly, and said reluctantly: "Everything I, Yun Waitian, have done in these years is for the Yun family, and I have never been greedy for the position of the head of the family. ”

"Alas!" Grand Elder Yun Jiang, who had been silent for a long time, sighed lightly and said: "Outer Heaven, as far as the Yun family is concerned, you are indeed the most suitable candidate for the head of the family. Regardless of whether this is what you want, if you succeed as the head of the family, This is the best outcome for the current Yun family, so you don’t have to refuse. As for what outsiders say, it’s okay not to listen.”

The great elder's words are naturally very precise. Yun Waitian was secretly happy in his heart. Just when he was about to follow the trend, he heard Prince Huiye suddenly say: "I have some brief opinions on the matter of the new head of the Yun family. Members of the Yun family may wish to listen to it."

Prince Kaguya spoke, instantly attracting all the eyes and attention. Yun Waitian took back what he was about to say, turned to Prince Kaguya, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, Kaguya, has any noble opinions. I would like to hear the details."

King Kaguya looked calm and smiled slightly. He flicked the folding fan in his hand and said slowly: "In my opinion, what Master Mu and Elder Helian said are true. Although Elder Yun has worked hard and made great achievements, in Yun The family's reputation is unparalleled, but it is indeed not suitable for the position of the head of the family. Otherwise, as the head of the family Mu Shao and Elder Helian said, it would be easy for outsiders to talk about it. This person would be formidable if he was only related to the elder. That’s it, the current situation of the Yun family is already worrying, and if it falls into the vortex of public opinion due to this incident, it will be even more detrimental to the Yun family. "

Prince Kaguya's words made Yun Waitian's heart twitch suddenly. He lowered his head, hiding the expression on his face that was uglier than crying: "His Royal Highness Kaguya said that I am indeed not suitable for the position of head of this family."

Prince Kaguya then said: "Given the current situation of the Yun family, it is imperative to change the head of the family. I do have a choice for the head of the family that I think is better."

"I don't know who His Highness Kaguya is referring to," Grand Elder Yun Xi said.

King Kaguya put away the folding fan, stood up, and walked leisurely: "The elder is not suitable to be the head of the family, and among the elders of this generation of the Yun family, there is no one more convincing than the elder, so why not Put the choice of the new head of the family on another level."

"What do you mean, Your Highness Kaguya?"

Prince Kaguya said: "Back then, you lost your family head and the ten strongest elders. Your strength declined overnight, and you were burdened with a hundred years of guilt. If the Yun family wants to rise again, it will undoubtedly take a long time, and even more An extremely good leader. A leader who is good enough must take enough time to cultivate. In my opinion, since it is difficult for the elder generation to choose, it is better to choose from the younger generation. Now the whole city knows that the eldest elder of the Yun family. His son, Yun Xinyue, is amazingly talented and proud of his talent. He is also gifted with the same cyan profound energy as the Demon King, but he has a humble temperament and is neither arrogant nor arrogant. He is indeed the proud son of the Yun family and has been praised by others more than once. He is the greatest hope for the rise of the Yun family. If he succeeds as the head of the Yun family, and assisted by the great elder and other elders, I believe that within ten years, Yun Xinyue will become an excellent leader and the Yun family will rise. It’s just around the corner.”

"Furthermore, although Yun Xinyue is young, I believe that you, the Yun family, know best what kind of talent he has. If he takes over as the head of the family, I believe that those who are dissatisfied may be a little less convinced than those who are dissatisfied with the great elder. What do you think?"
